Bristol City’s coffers have been boosted by at least £340,000 from Sky Sports this season.

The Robins have been shown live on seven occasions so far this season despite not being one of the EFL partner's favoured teams.

Lee Johnson's side only appeared once between August and December but were on TV regularly throughout December and January.

Three of City's seven matches on TV have come at Ashton Gate against Aston Villa, Middlesbrough and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The EFL award Championship clubs £100,000 for every home game hosted on Sky Sports unless it’s played on a Sunday (£120,000) or a Thursday (£140,000). Every time a team appears on Sky away from home they’re given £10,000.

Bristol City also appeared on TV three times in their run to the Carabao Cup semi-finals against Manchester City. The Man United and Man City games mean extra money for the Robins with the TV revenue split between the clubs.

Sky haven't picked the Robins for the latest set of fixtures in the first half of April but you can expect them to feature as the play-off race hots up.

A possible play-off campaign would add to club's TV kitty with dreams of the Premier League money still alive.
